The Wickerlight by Mary Watson
4.0
MYSTERY, MURDER AND MAGIC!
The sequel to Wren hunt that can be read as a standalone is captivating.
Following the story of David and Zara, we find the village where we left it at the end of Wren Hunt. Except something has gone wrong and a girl is dead.
I love Irish folklore inspired stories and this is no exception.
It took a few chapters to get over my disappointment of not getting more of Wren and Tarc, but once the mystery of Zara and David took over I was hooked. The slow burn romance is cute and innocent.
The writing style is easy to follow, though the storyline is complex. This tangled web took some unraveling but it was well worth the commitment.
The book is well paced, with a great balance between slow and fast paced chapters, creating a great rhythm to the novel.
All in all a great read.
